Just got into a debate with my MIL about my spouses work situation.
It’s the holidays and he was recently hired, he’s also a student in an advanced course, so he has little time to do all his assignments. So much so that he only has thanksgiving and the day before off, when usually university’s give you a whole week off.
His job is now telling him everyone has to work Sundays (which they told him he’d have off) and he now has to work nights (which he asked off, and they agreed, since he’s a student).
My MIL seems to think it’s ok since it’s the holidays, he wants to make money, and he’s (seemingly, not confirmed) gonna have off for new years.
I obviously disagree, it’s the schedulers fault for not planning ahead of time and the managers fault for not properly communicating all requirements prior to my spouse taking the job. If they do this to him now, they’re going to do this to him in the future.
What can be done?
